Institutional Equity Office Supports for U of T Community
At the University of Toronto, we understand how current and global affairs, including ongoing conflicts, natural disasters, as well as discrimination in Canada and abroad, may have profound impacts on members of our community. We recognize that as people navigate their work and learning environments during times of global strife and crisis, they may require very different types of programs, services, supports and resources.
To support the community and to sustain the principles of inclusion and belonging, the Institutional Equity Office (IEO) will bring together engagement and education opportunities and available resources from across U of T. We encourage you to explore them below.
Daylight Savings Reminder
Daylight Saving Time is almost here. This Sunday, March 8th, we spring forward, with clocks jumping from 2:00am to 3:00am.
Coinamatic Laundry Tips
In response to some residents’ concerns about the efficiency of laundry machines, Coinamatic has shared best practices for using their washing machines at 30 and 35 Charles:
- Use HE (High Efficinecy) detergent or 1/4th of the recommended amount of any non-HE detergent;
- Avoid overloading washers. This can lead to white marks on clothes and unbalanced and broken machines;
- Report any concerns to Coinamatic via their portal or directly to Housing Services for action. Paper out of order signs may also be placed on machines which will then be reported by the Operations team during their regular checks.
